Bondage and its Leather-Clad Gimps

If you've ever seen Tarantino's critically acclaimed masterpiece Pulp Fiction or American Horror Story's Cult, you will have seen a man dressed in some form of leather dress. These are gimps.
While Tarantino (Pulp Fiction), Murphy and Falchuk (AHS) chose to show a more extreme aspect of gimpery (is that a word?) that doesn't mean there aren't people out there who enjoy a skintight suit outside of Catwoman cosplay.

So, what is a gimp? Originally the term referred to someone with a limp or a crippled leg. Then, with the release of Tarantino's hit film Pulp Fiction in 1994, the term gimp became associated with submissive sex slaves.
Gimps are associated with BDSM relationships and explores the dominance and submission between a master and slave. The submissive is instructed to dress in a skintight leather or latex suit to completely cover themselves. Wearing a suit like this dehumanises the submissive and objectifies them into becoming their master's plaything - a sexual object. This is a common part of BDSM dynamics where one is able to completely give themselves up.

A common theme in BDSM activities is being able to take on the role of someone else, a mindless submissive, and be told what to do. Many BDSM practitioners report this to be an extremely freeing experience where the pressures of daily life are no longer important. It's not hard to imagine that having the stress of constantly making decisions removed would feel good!
The dehumanization of a gimp is also allowing the submissive to be free of themself. Any hang-ups, shame or guilt of engaging in a healthy BDSM sex life can be wiped away and completely separated from their 'real life'.

BDSM, which stands for 'bondage discipline dominance submission' revolves around exploring the power dynamics between two or more people. From the outside, those engaged in BDSM can seem to be quite brutal and uncaring. However, the BDSM community is actually exploring the trust held between partners when engaging in a scene.

Gimp suits (or bondage suits as they're also known as) are often accessorised with belts, rings and buckles. These can be used to attach leads and gags to the gimp, or even for suspension! Harnesses may also be used to attach strap-ons or other sex toys to the gimp to be used on or with the submissive. This is a hugely trust-heavy exercise and should only be done with experienced partners one has a strong relationship with.

Not all gimp suits come with an attached hood. Gimp masks can be sold separately and come in a wide array of styles. Commonly, a ski-mask or balaclava design is employed. This tight-fitting mask can come with or without mouth and eye-holes depending on the amount of sensory deprivation you are looking for.
Some masks are crafted to resemble the faces of animals like dogs or ponies. Often completed with ears and a snout, these masks allow the wearer to take on a non-human personality and can be used in activities like puppy or pony play.
More extreme gimp masks can be completely made of tight leather without much give, if any. These are designed to completely deprive the wearer of sight and impede their hearing and speaking abilities. Some of these masks are fitted with zips and gags to adjust how extreme you want the scene you're engaging in to be.

Has your interest in BDSM and dom/sub relationships been piqued?
Don't feel like you have to move from vanilla sex right into something intense, Fifty Shades of Grey style. There are plenty of ways to dip your toes into the world of BDSM without belly-flopping in straight away.
Light impact play with whips and floggers can tease and titillate your partner. Bondage tape is a great way to experiment with restraints during play, as well as blindfolds to explore sensory deprivation.
